ALL ARE WELCOME/RECONCILING” STATEMENT

     The members of the Peace With Justice Team are a “reconciling presence” in the First United Methodist Church in Holland, Michigan.

           We hope that our congregation finds ways to:

Welcome all people – no exceptions.

  •      To explicitly welcome people regardless of age, race, ethnicity, skin color, legal status, economic status, gender, gender identity, marital status, sexual orientation, disability, physical condition, national origin, mental ability.
  •      To make it very clear that we welcome other people, not listed here, who may experience any kind of discrimination in Church or Society.
  •      To be open to the views of others, including those who may have difficulty accepting all the words of this statement.
